Chapter 844 A Bloody Battle Triggered by an Acquisition

A few days before the Spring Festival in 1999, the atmosphere in the streets and alleys was more intense than in previous years.

With the settlement of Yuanqi Technology's acquisition of Ericsson's mobile phone business unit, the pride of the Chinese nation was greatly aroused, and the mainstream media unreservedly set Yuanqi Technology and Lotus mobile phones as positive models.

Suddenly, Yuanqi Technology even became the benchmark for the success of China's economic reform, and the vanguard of China's enterprises entering the world's top 500.

While the domestic media is full of praise, the foreign media and even the main competitors of Lotus mobile phones generally express their dislike for Yuanqi Technology.

In particular, Mr. Smith, the person in charge of Motorola's China region, made it clear in an interview that, as a new generation of Yuanqi Technology, the acquisition of Ericsson's mobile phone giant industry chain is likely to cause the consequences of 'indigestion'.

After all, the high-tech enterprises in Huaxia, who were born in mud legs, started by taking advantage of the huge market, but they obviously lack experience in the operation and integration of multinational groups.

As a result, Smith is even full of confidence in leading the Motorola brand to regain the throne of the Chinese mobile phone market.

Not only that, Matt from Nokia headquarters, as well as Apple, Samsung and other companies were interviewed by the paper media, expressing their extreme disapproval of Yuanqi Technology's blind expansion.

Rolls-Royce was driving on Longpan Road. After flipping through the foreign media newspapers on these cars, An Rong tilted her head and asked Wu Tao with great interest: "There are so many competitors who are waiting to see the jokes of Yuanqi Technology. Are you not worried at all?"

Wu Tao spread his hands, patted his knees and said, "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married, let him go. Why, don't you think what they said makes sense?"

An Rong leaned against the back of the chair, her enchanting figure put on a comfortable posture, and said, "I don't think so. I think that in this situation, as long as Yuanqi Technology doesn't mess around and receives Ericsson's mobile phone resources smoothly, , and make proper use of it, the rumors of those individuals saying the same thing will be self-defeating."

Seeing An Rong's smooth talk, Wu Tao realized that An Rong's hard work these days was not in vain.

At least this kind of well-founded and eloquent momentum is tempered.

But Wu Tao thought for a moment, frowned and said: "Why do I feel that you seem to have something in your words?" Then he rolled his eyes at the other party and said: "Is it necessary to keep doing this with me?"

An Rong glanced back at him, and then said sternly, "I just think that recently you allowed President Yang to separate out the mobile phone production and manufacturing business, and then put Vice President Xiao on the right foot, which seems to be a big move."

"...I think it's safe to wait until a year after the Ericsson mobile phone is acquired before considering these things."

This is to have your own thinking, so naturally you have to encourage it.

So Wu Tao first praised the other party, and then said: "Actually, when I take this step, I want to stabilize my position first, and then plan for the next step. The dynamics of people's consciousness are the most difficult to grasp, especially as the core of the company. Executives. If the stability of core executives cannot be ensured, it may have a fatal impact on the smooth transition and sustainable development of the company.”

"...so pay close attention to their developments, sooner rather than later."

Back in Splendid Huating, Zhao Li was the only one at home.

The year is over, and it is the time when major companies are busy, so it is rare for everyone in this family to get together.

Especially Shi Qianmei's Friendship Clothing Group, which coincides with the peak season for Qian Huimei's down jacket sales, takes care of everything throughout the day. Shi Qianmei is so busy that she doesn't even have time to eat a warm meal, let alone get home from get off work on time.

The kitchen was filled with a strong fragrance. Zhao Li was wearing a round neck sweater and an apron, looking like a virtuous housewife.

There are already several delicious dishes on the table, such as braised pork ribs, braised eggplant, etc., which look quite attractive.

When Wu Tao saw it, he couldn't help pinching a piece and threw it into his mouth. It turned out that the ribs were just out of the pan, and they didn't look steamy. In fact, the inside of the icing was so hot that it almost scalded his tongue.

So embarrassing.

Zhao Liqing came out with a plate of sautéed celery and dried fragrant. Just in time to see this scene, she spat and said, "You deserve it! Did you wash your hands?"

That's really not the case.

Turning around, he went into the bathroom to wash his hands, Wu Tao returned to the dining table, and Zhao Li had already taken out the chopsticks.

"By the way, don't you usually get off work with your second cousin? Why did you come back so early today?"

Zhao Li grabbed her apron, wiped her hands and said, "There was an accident at Tianxing Game Company today. Sister Xue has no time to study new games with me."

When Wu Tao heard this, he couldn't help wondering: "What happened?" In his opinion, Tianxing Game Company has been established for so long, and it has long been monolithic. As for the first game, Counter-Strike, which has been online for so long, all aspects of its functions have already stabilized, so there shouldn't be any major disturbances.

"It's not about Yuanqi Technology!" Zhao Li said with a smile, "Anyway, I probably heard that there are many patriotic gamers who are fighting with foreign gamers. The focus of the debate is Is Yuanqi Technology's acquisition of Ericsson mobile phones a dead end?"

"...In the end, the two sides felt that the talk was not enough, so they formed their own teams to fight in the game. Unexpectedly, the more the fight, the stronger the team, and more and more people participated, so that in the end it was out of control It's over."

"...Anyway, when I was about to get off work, I heard something. It seems that the daily activity rate of the game has reached a new high, and it is almost squeezing the bandwidth of Huaxia Internet to foreign countries."

It's really weird that they can actually fight over this matter.

This is really a bloody battle triggered by cross-border acquisitions.

Wu Tao smiled. No matter how the domestic and foreign media contend, at least the sales of Lotus mobile phones have increased a lot during the new year. This is a real benefit for Yuanqi Technology.

It's the same when switching to Tianxing Game Company. No matter how domestic and foreign players complain, at least the popularity of the game has increased, and the VIP income has also doubled.

For the sake of these benefits, other things can be loved, so let it go.

An Rong went back to the house and changed into light home clothes, came out, pointed out the window and said, "It's snowing outside!"

Wu Tao and Zhao Liqi looked back together, and at some point, a white mist had fallen on the ground outside the window.

It seemed that the snow came quickly and fell heavily, and it was overwhelming in a blink of an eye.

There are dim street lamps and whirling figures mixed in between the drifts, and for a while, it really feels like a New Year's Eve atmosphere.

An Rong looked at the dazzling array of delicacies on the table, and said in amazement: "Lili, do you really think today is Chinese New Year, and you actually cooked so many dishes?"

Zhao Li said as a matter of course: "Today is the New Year, but it's just a New Year's Eve."

"Really!" An Rong glanced at Wu Tao, and then realized today's day, and clapped her hands happily: "I'll help you..."
